Wilkerson files for Clarkson Mayor position, ballot positions drawn

The August 12 cutoff date to file for the November 4 General Election came and went with only one candidate filing. Dennie Wilkerson filed papers with the County Clerk’s office seeking the office of Mayor of Clarkson.

Wilkerson ran against incumbent Clarkson Mayor Bonnie Henderson in both 2006 and 2010, losing in ’06, 154-142, and ’10, 183-168.
